Digital pencil rendering of Upper Bidwell Park in Chico, California which is located in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. It has steep terrain and shallow soils, and contains many rock formations, including the unique Chico Formation sandstone and Lovejoy Basalt rocks. This image has been digitally rendered as fine detailed pencil drawing. It reminds me of the delicate "silver point" drawings that I created on gessoed paper using a piece of sterling silver wire while a student at the Art Institute Of Boston. The silver would darken as it oxidized creating a very subtle and soft look. This image looks stunning in the larger sizes, matted and framed. © 2018 Frank Wilson; Art Style; landscape; Tags: pencil, pencil drawing, pencil rendering, frank wilson, canyon, meadow, cliffs, california, hills trees, blue sky, bidwell park, chico, frank wilson, lava, lava cliffs, uper bidwell park; Media: photography; Materials: Digital Pencil Rendering.
